“Several times a day, stop and just listen. Open your hearing 360 degrees, as if your ears were giant radar dishes. Listen to the obvious sounds, and the subtle soundsin your body, in the room, in the building, and outside. Listen as if you had just landed from a foreign planet and didnt know what was making these sounds. See if you can hear all sounds as music being played just for you. Even in what is called silence there is sound. To hear such subtle sound, the mind must be very quiet.” IfsKnowsMindBodySoundRoomsSilenceBuildingPlanetsListeningQuietDegreesMusic IsEarsObviousHearingYour BodyGiantsSubtleDishesJust ListenRadarBeing Played Author:Jan Chozen Bays

“Compared to men writers of like distinction and years of life, few women writers have had lives of unbroken productivity, or leave behind a 'body of work.' Early beginnings, then silence; or clogged late ones (foreground silences); long periods between books (hidden silences); characterize most of us.” MenYearsLongBookBodyBehindsSilencePeriodsLateProductivityDistinctionUnbrokenYears Of LifeForeground Book:Silences Source: Silences
